Publication Type: Conference Paper/Unpublished Manuscript Abstract: Two studies investigated Fiske’s (1991, 1992) Relational Models Theory in the context of interpersonal relationships and showed that rather than being models of relationships, relational models are models of relating that are used differently in different domains of interpersonal relationships. Study 1 (N=145) investigated the use of relational models in three different types of relationships (mother, close friend, & acquaintance). Results showed that even though intimacy and interpersonal power generally predict relational model use, the use of a relational model in one relationship domain correlates only weakly to the use of the same model in a different domain of the same relationship. Study 2 (N = 282) replicated these findings in a cross-cultural context (American & Singaporean) and found evidence suggesting that although relational models are systematically related to horizontal and vertical individualism and collectivism, these correlations are only small to medium, particularly when compared to the variance between relational domains. Results of both studies suggest that relational models are a particularly fruitful approach to relationship research when individual relationship domains are considered rather than relationships in general.
